Don't forget the vu-meter screensaver on the sb2/3! But seriously, I have slimp3, sb1, sb1/g, sb2 and sb3 (full house!) and the only issues I've had with any of them have been on the 1 wireless sb1 which I sorted by getting a new router, resiting it and forcing compression to the box. I'm sure with the larger buffer on the sb2/3 it would never give problems, but as you're running wired anyway and it's a first foray into the squeezebox world, I'd think the sb1 would be a good start. The grpahic display is a lot nicer if you can get one with that, but I think (some) people worry too much about the aesthetics rather than just enjoying the music. The newer devices feel a bit more slick, but my slimp3 is still used on a daily basis without problems.
Go for the sb1, but just be aware that you will feel compelled to buy more as time goes by.... -- xio ------------------------------------------------------------------------ xio's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18691 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
